When recovering from an illness or injury, the journey may begin with a hospital stay. Sadly, this hospital stay may result in greater problems for the patient. Hospital-acquired infections are infections acquired in the hospital that are unrelated to the condition for which a patient was initially being treated. This is a distressingly common issue that can affect as many as one in every 25 individuals.

Some of the most infections acquired in hospitals include:

Bloodstream infections

Urinary tract infections

Respiratory infections

Surgical site infections

Staph infections

While some of these infections are unavoidable, many of them are. Your hospital is required to provide you with the safest environment possible. If you acquired an infection while in the hospital, you have a right to understand why. Some common risk factors for acquiring infections in the hospital include:

Exposure to almost any hospital personnel

Exposure to infected individuals

Exposure to poorly maintained or unclean equipment

Inadequate hand washing

Wounds and/or infections

Lengthy hospital stays

Improper use or overuse of antibiotics

Surgical procedures
